In California a person is legally required to show his driver's license, registration, insurance info, and give his current address to everyone involved in an auto accident.
Call the police and a lawyer immediately and have this guy tracked down. He's broken the law and owes you for the damage done to your car (and if you still have the receipt/canceled check/whatever to prove what you paid for you car, plus receipts for the parts and work you've put into it, you can get the full value back. Don't listen to the "blue book" crap).
Do NOT try to make a private deal with him.
